You've got to figure out a way to be able to have it in the water for friends that don't know about it, and then take them for a ride and see what...
I think the frame construction / hull build would keep me interested, but the multiple iterations of "sand the hull" required later would make me...
That's great. Imagine taking that baby for a ride not knowing some madman had put foils on it, and the shock on your face when you start to...
Meh...the military I experienced makes terrible decisions, so it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't fubar the installations / programming /...
How is it sailing when not foiling? Are they acting like underside anchors with drag, or can you barely tell the difference?
Principles of yacht design by Larson and Ericson is a good start imo. Covers the entire design spiral.
Is anybody using any kind of trim tab set up yet? I know with aircraft you have to set your trim to account for speed, so figure you'd need to do...

Sweet! How much was the carbon fiber and resin total?
I like that 36 footer of his, but do not share his desire to limit electrons. I hold the opinion that future sailors are going to place a premium...
Ask and ye shall etc... THIS is exactly what I'm talking about. There's still room for improvement over the design to reduce both weight and...
I don't agree with that at all. Most full keel boats weren't designed to "protect the boat", as you claim, but were made that way because "that's...
I fear those things. I have nightmares of delamination, or hull breaches resulting in water logged foam core. I wish I could afford to buy and...
